Forty Days Of Inner Covenant
Exodus 34:28 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 34 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Moses spends forty days with the LORD, fasting, and writes the words of the covenant—the ten commandments—on the tablets.
Neville's Inner Vision
When you hear Moses abiding with the LORD for forty days, hear it as your own abiding wisdom. The LORD is not a distant sky but the I AM that you are, the awareness that never leaves. The forty days without bread or water symbolize fasting from the outward supports of the world; in that silence you discover you do not need them to be the lawgiver of your life. In that stillness, the words of the covenant rise and are written on the tablets of your consciousness. The commandments are not distant decrees but the enduring principles you choose to live by—integrity, faithfulness, obedience to your inner law. What Moses writes is your own decision to align with that inner covenant, to act in harmony with the I AM that you are. Your present moment is not a deficiency but a studio in which the law is cast in concrete by your choice. Each moment you refuse the hunger of fear and feed on the truth of your I AM, you are rewriting the commandments into your experience. The exodus is the soul’s turning away from lack toward unity.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and, in imagination, see yourself at a quiet table writing the covenant on the tablets of your mind. Rest in the feeling that the commandments already govern your life.
